Just ran into a problem when our internet connection went down that I I can't open a console session with the HTML5 web console. I requires access to ajax.googleapis.com in order to function.

I too have run into this issue. I am unable to open a console session with the HTML5 web console. My cluster is on a closed network with no internet access once I am VPN'ed in, so I am unable to make an outbound connection to ajax.googleapis.com.
The html served up by the Web client for the console tries to load two scripts from Google's CDN. There is a comment in the page source indicating that a local fallback would be used but the one of the two scripts is missing the local fallback. See below
<!-- Grab Google CDN's jQuery, with a protocol relative URL; fall back to local if offline -->
<script>window.jQuery || document.write('<script src="js/libs/jquery-1.6.2.js"><\/script>')</script><script src="js/libs/jquery-1.6.2.js"></script>
<!-- Grab Google CDN's jQuery UI, with a protocol relative URL; fall back to local if offline -->
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.8.16/jquery-ui.js"></script>
Does this help?
So after working with VMware for this issue. They have told me it has been resolved. The issue was resolved in vSphere 6.0 and it was back-ported to 5.5 which will be a patch under 5.5u3...
